I'm doing daily weigh ins, I find it more motivating. It might not be for everyone but if anyone would like to join in with posting every day your weight and loss, and how the day has gone - to stay in focus. Good luck!

Can I join? I love a daily weigh in.

SW: 120k
CW: 104.9
GW: 75 kilos

I have a long (weigh) way to go but I find daily keeps me motivated...

Menora · 19/03/2024 06:37

sw: 100kg
cw: 74.3kg
gw: 68-70kg or there abouts

sometimes I get sick of thinking about what I am eating daily but I also am enjoying the results of the effort and I know it’s what I have to do

I took my blood pressure yesterday. When I was 100kg it was veering upwards a little 130/85 and it did worry me but it’s now 110/74

Stuck, stuck, stuck, stuck, stuck!

Gahhhhhi hate plateaus, so annoying knowing I'm sticking to the calorie limit and it's not doing anything.

Grumble, grumble, grumble.

Hope you don't mind me joining in.

Start weight. 12st 11.5

Welcome @justsaxy and @DirtyDensDog

@FlabMonsterIsDietingAgain it is so frustrating when that happens. It makes it feel like it's not worth sticking to it. I'm sure it will kick in again soon though.

Thanks @LadyDanburysHat I am drinking so much water this week my teeth are floating and I'm up and down to the toilet every 20 minutes (getting my step count up).

I will flush the fat out!

DirtyDensDog · 19/03/2024 12:52

@LadyDanburysHat thank you for the welcome.

Hello, I’d love to join you if you’ll have me….
Im grossly overweight at 19st 1.1 pounds (I was 19st 2lbs yesterday!). I restarted the 5:2 way of eating yesterday. I’ve done well on it previously, started at 21st 7lbs and managed to get down to just over 17 stone but bad habits crept back in and I completely fell off the wagon.
I haven’t ever weighed daily before but it might stop me from having the “if I eat this today I’ll cut down tomorrow thoughts”. I’m 56 soon and have been overweight since I could talk, I need some accountability and I’m hoping that this is it.
I think that my daily weigh ins will only be Tuesday through to Friday as I really struggle with healthy eating over the weekends, I fast on a Monday and a Thursday.

Menora · 20/03/2024 12:10

Same weight today. Got some new jeans size 12 in next sale as the weather is warming up I need to come out of the same leggings and boots on weekends
Ive always had a love hate relationship with jeans they don’t fit well but these ones are actually ok

Welcome @Iwouldratherbesinging

@Menora I am making a concerted effort to wear more things like jeans. I work from home and elasticated waistbands have been my downfall in recent year. So starting to wear proper clothes more with the hope it will remind me not to eat too much.

Menora · 20/03/2024 12:29

@LadyDanburysHat it’s really easy to end up with an elasticated wardrobe! Most of mine has been. I won’t force myself to wear awful things that I don’t like and uncomfortable but some soft stretchy jeans will make me feel like I am making more effort than the leggings!

Hi everyone, it feels like spring has arrived today, I can see sunshine. Going to do some work in the garden, that counts as exercise, right ?

Iwouldratherbesinging · 20/03/2024 12:54

Back to 19st 2lb after todays weigh-in
I am out on a Tuesday after finishing work so don’t get a chance to eat dinner until after 9pm which isn’t ideal, I planned ahead and made two chicken wraps pilled high with salad and had a handful of cashews, but go to bed soon after eating.
No sunshine here @DirtyDensDog 😔

My weight has dropped again overnight, but I have had a rather upset stomach after some tragic local news. So not a real loss, and likely to rise again a little I would think.

I would appreciate some sunshine for a lunchtime walk, but don't think it is going to be forthcoming.
